The big guy’s developed great. Love the clammy hands and feet.
Races of Middle Earth - Character - azazel
Thanks guys a lot 
Just a very quick sketch of what I want for final pic. Hope I manage to finish before deadline… Anyway, almost everything here is to be changed: colors will be less saturated, there’ll be more dark creatures in the mist (ony one now), much more details everywhere, and I’ll give him some weapon, preferably scavanged orc sword…

Can’t wait to see it finished…
Me too;)
Started painting the background: Trees and everything on separate layers, not much more done yet. Character is just a placeholder now…


Here’s final head closeup, there will be also this forest scene and model showoff for final…

swag & .overflowed, thanks guys:beer: 
Definitely finished the forest scene:(pics are tad big, but I don’t want compression to ruin them):

Just saw Zurwig on the frontpage… thanks Cgtalk crew:beer:
And that would be final pic:

This last pic lost any signs of rendering and turned into some old-skol ilustration from book. And that’s great. Now it looks great. Can’t wait voting
